Ne Centralizatlon d CapiGaI.


One of the most dangerous tenden-
cies Of the times is the concentration
of capitalized interests into gigantic
corporations which by reason for their
strength and weight are crushing ont
competition and independence. The
recent purchase Of the great Baltimore
& Ohio railroad by the Pennsylvania
New York Central interest emphasizes
this marked tendency of modern times
The independence efso strong road as
the Baltimora acted KS D powerful check
upon the rapaclty oi the o.aar grea,
trunk lines leading nom the Atlantic
coast to the interior. Ia fact the eNis-
tence Of the Baltimore road made COM
petition possible. 1t is not strange,
therefor, that the other great corpora
tons were willing to pay an enormous
price for the road. By buying the road
they remove the only barrier to high
rates. The road has been bought and
already it is announced that the new
management viii strive to increase the
revenues so as TO make ITS operation
even more profitable than before.
In al parts of the country capitalists
are combining for what they are pleas
ed to call self-protecuOn. The ''self-
protection" which they 50 earnestly de
sire, and for which they are willing TO
pay so high is nothing more nor less
than the license to put up prices to the
very highest notch and to crush ont any
ambitious concern that strives 70 build
up a business by charging lower prices,
and that is satisfied with more moder-
ate prices.-Gazetts Journal (Rep.)

The OIL monopolists have held a
meeting and decided to limit the pro-
duction and advanced the price so per
cent. Against this strike" not word
has been said by the lava bidIng press,
though it is simply a barefaced eNtor-
ton and requires the people TO pay
nearly twice the price for oil, that the
monopoly's profit may be increased 50
per cent. There is no danger Of their
advancing the wages Of their employ
ees--they can't afford to do anything
like that-W orking World.

Buildings have stood for years, (prob-
ably fifty or more,) without being struck
by lightning, therefore we conclude they
are safe. Long exemption, however, is
no guarantee of future security, there.
tore no conclusion could be more illopi-
cal: Many buildings have stood for CEN
turles without being harmed, but were
at last destroyed by lightning, How of.
ten do we see great forest trees that have
been, recently, literally DESTROYED by
lightning, that had escaped for centuries.
If it were true that long exemption is a
reliable guarantee of future security, we
would never see such thing as a yene-.
rable old tree shiYered from top to bot
tom, or an old building, that has escaped
for centuries, thus destroyed. The facts
are building may be destroyed before
1t Is completed, as is frequently the case.
or 1t may stand a century or more with.
out being harmed, and then be DESTROY
ed, or 1t may decay by the action of the
Wenther without ever being harmed bv
lightning.
The great philosopher, Llchtenberp
OF Gottingen, said in the year 1894. 'Peo.
pie are struck and their dwellings are
destroyed by lightning because they will
have 1t so. 1t does not matter to us
whether parsimony, carelessness. iouo.
rrnce, or anything else is the cause of
this" Won Otto Buchner, of Wcimar,
Germany, asserts ''that this dictum may
be equally applied to the present genera
tion."

There were over one hundred per-

9 CHICAGO, July 27.-A special from
Atlanta; Ca, says: The education@
al committee of-thet House and
sSenate in joint session last evening
in favor of the Glenn bill
which makes it penalty for any
teacher to teach white children in
a colored school or colored children
in a white school, the schools being
kept separate by the constitutional
law of the State. The preliminary
discussion of the bill has created
considerable excitement in the
North. Its passage is accepted here
as the fixed policy of the State.
There was little discussion in the
committee, every white man voted
for the bill. Two colored members
of the committee voted adversely.
